We’ve previously discussed the importance of changing your device’s root password after jailbreaking so that unauthorized individuals can’t exploit the default password to SSH into your handset and make potentially malicious changes unbeknownst to you.
We previously showed you how you can change the root user password on your jailbroken handset with an on-device terminal app like NewTerm. But since then, the process has changed slightly, especially if using modern rootless jailbreaks on iOS or iPadOS 15 and later, such as Dopamine or palera1n. Fortunately, we will share the updated process with you in today’s tutorial.
As a jailbreak tweak tester, it’s not uncommon for me to experience what many jailbreakers would describe as a respring loop after installing a buggy or conflicting add-on. While it can be a major inconvenience, the good news is that respring loops are generally easy to recover from.
Back at the start of September, we showed you an alternative to Lars Fröder’s Dopamine jailbreak called Xinam1ne by iOS developer cypwn. Xinam1ne is a fork of the Dopamine jailbreak, but it’s modified in that it supports both rootful and rootless jailbreak tweaks.
In case you missed it, there is a new TrollStore installation method that supports not only iOS & iPadOS 15.2-16.6.1, but also iOS & iPadOS 16.7 RC (20H18) and the coveted 17.0. It’s called TrollRestore, and it’s the first TrollStore installation method ever to support iOS & iPadOS 17.0.
Many jailbreakers and non-jailbreakers alike are familiar with the TrollStore perma-signing utility, which utilizes a CoreTrust exploit in iOS & iPadOS 14.0-16.6.1 and 17.0 to permanently install .ipa files as System apps with elevated permissions.
It wasn’t very long ago that we talked about a relatively new piece of sideloading software called SideStore, which strives to be more of an untethered sideloading experience than the already ever popular AltStore software.
In case you’ve been living under a rock, there’s a new TrollStore installation method on the block called TrollInstallerX by iOS developer @alfiecg_dev, and it’s arguably one of the easiest ways to put TrollStore on your device aside from TrollHelperOTA.
If you previously installed the RootHide Procursus-based bootstrap on your iPhone or iPad, and you’ve decided that you want to uninstall it either because you’d rather use a full-fledged jailbreak or because it’s just not for you, then you’ve come to the right place.
If you’re using a device that runs TrollStore 2, but isn’t jailbroken, then you have the option to download and install the RootHide Procursus-based bootstrap so that you can install jailbreak tweaks that modify applications on your device.
Just in case you haven’t been paying attention to the community recently, Misaka project lead developer @straight_tamago recently released a new dedicated TrollStore installer for iOS & iPadOS 14.x-15.8.1 devices called TrollMisaka.
If you jailbroke your iPhone or iPad with the XinaA15 v2 jailbreak and you’d like to remove it, then you’ve come to the right place. This tutorial will show you this process, step-by-step so that you can revert to a stock device.
